Welcome to the Clean Air Challenge 2016

The American Lung Association’s Clean Air Challenge, Alaska's premier cycling event, is now in it's 32nd year! If you’ve never ridden with us before, this is your year. If you’re a returning rider thinking, “been there, done that,” we've got big news. The Clean Air Challenge has an exciting new route and format!

This top notch ride with amazing support now gives you a choice of distances from 10 miles to 100, all starting and finishing at the Talkeetna Alaska lodge. Clean Air Challenge Alaska now offers family friendly options, still includes an overnight at the Lodge, and now has a one-day route that takes you north to Denali. You can even earn a private room and/or a second night's stay at the Lodge, through fundraising incentives.

We provide superb organization, beautiful routes, medical and mechanical support, lunch and snack stops and a finish celebration with a delicious hearty feast. The iconic Clean Air Challenge has just become an even better way to kick off your cycling season.
